From listening sessions to promoting new songs under disco balls, Lin Xuaner's new album instantly became the biggest topic in the music industry recently.
Lin Xuaner's parents simply took a day off today. It's not because they think they are financially free and don't want to work, but because they want a quiet space.
It is hard to imagine that after they arrive in the classroom today, they will not be surrounded by their students and asked all kinds of questions related to Lin Xuaner.
What words will they use to answer then?
"Honestly, it's just a new album, why is it so popular?" Mother Lin was shopping with her husband at the moment, who would have thought that advertisements would be seen everywhere.
Father Lin shrugged his shoulders, saying with a mixture of joy and resignation, "Yes, it's indeed just a new album. But ever since they performed on the Spring Festival Gala and then on this global tour, their popularity has skyrocketed. I bet Mr. Zhou didn't expect this!"
Just as they were chatting, they suddenly heard screams and applause from the crowd in front of them.
After they looked at each other, they immediately looked over, wanting to know what was happening in front.
"What's going on?" Mother Lin asked a random passerby, wanting to know what had happened.
But the people in front couldn't hear their voices clearly in such a noisy environment, and no one could answer their questions at this moment.
Father Lin shrugged and continued, "I don't know, maybe it's a shopping mall promotion!"
After all, in front of them is a very famous shopping mall in downtown Shencheng, where activities are often held and celebrities are occasionally invited to perform.
Mother Lin nodded and felt that her husband was right.
When they were about to leave, they found that there were fewer people crowded in front of them.
When they looked forward, they saw their daughter's projection on the giant screen outside the mall.
What was broadcast next was the countdown to the release of her new album.
They opened their mouths in confusion, but in the end they followed everyone else and counted down loudly, purely because they were driven by the atmosphere on the scene.
"10! 9! 8! 7!"
After counting down to 1, the giant screen suddenly changed, and the name of Lin Xuaner's new album appeared in front of the audience for the first time.
"The Great Artist".
At the same time, all domestic shopping websites and music platforms have opened purchasing channels for this album.
Those fans who pre-ordered the album are naturally very happy, and they can't wait to listen to the album.
Now, netizens who can't even open the purchase link are dumbfounded and regret not paying for pre-orders in advance. Otherwise, they could now sit in the office like everyone else, drinking milk tea while leisurely listening to the new song.
"Brother Yang, how many copies are there now?" Lin Xuan'er had always considered herself a vulgar person. She'd hoped her album would be a hit, rather than an art album. It was just like when she was an actress, she'd never dreamed of winning an award, only a box office success.
She is a pragmatic female artist, but this is also what Zhou Yiyang admires most about her.
Maybe her talent is not the best, but her achievements are no worse than those geniuses.
"The results are very good." Zhou Yiyang smiled. His first sentence gave Lin Xuaner a reassurance, making her feel at ease immediately.
Zhou Yiyang then continued, "Wait an hour, and we should be able to estimate your album's first-day performance."
Lin Xuan'er nodded: "Am I being too impatient, Brother Yang?"
Zhou Yiyang shook his head. "Isn't this normal? If it were anyone else, it would be the same. But don't worry, the quality of your album this time is stable, and most of the songs are catchy, so the performance will definitely not be bad."
"People often say that many good albums are critically acclaimed but not commercially successful, so I'm worried about running into that same situation myself."
On the other side, Mr. and Mrs. Lin, who had originally planned to leave the mall, changed their minds.
Since others are supporting their daughters' music careers, shouldn't they, as parents, do the same?
So the two of them immediately followed the flow of people into the crowd, and then found that everyone was walking towards the bookstore.
I don’t know when it started, but the audio-visual stores on the street began to close down one after another, and in the end, the only way to buy albums was to go to various bookstores.
The bookstore that was deserted in the past is now crowded with people.
When Mr. and Mrs. Lin walked in, they immediately saw the new album placed in the most conspicuous position at the door.
"Those who want to buy albums, please line up first!" The waiter's tone was not as gentle as usual. Who could blame the large number of people buying albums right now? "When it's your turn, you will definitely be in line!"
"Are you all buying these to listen to music?" This was the first time Mother Lin had seen such a scene. What she didn't know was that the bookstores were actually even scarier when Yue Shao released his group album. Because the big bookstores would pre-order all the books a day in advance.
"Of course not," the guy in front smiled. "I bought them all to collect. When it comes to listening to music, it's actually more convenient to use a phone or computer."
Mother Lin said "Oh" and then said to her husband, "Let's buy one to keep as a collection."
At this time, the young man in front laughed: "Uncle and aunt, are you fans of Lin Xuaner's solo or Yue Shao's group?"
If it were in the past, Mother Lin would definitely not understand what sole fans and group fans were, but now she understands.
"We're definitely group fans," she said honestly. She was incredibly fond of these girls and treated them like her own daughters. "But I like Lin Xuan'er, too."
"Haha, I didn't expect you to be so fashionable, Auntie!" The boy next to her laughed and said, "It seems our Moonlight Girl is really suitable for all ages!"
Half a day later, Zhou Yiyang also received their estimated scores from Guan Fei, which were quite good.
Lin Xuaner's new album sold 400,000 copies in China alone on the first day. If overseas sales are included, the number has steadily exceeded one million.
Although it cannot be compared with Moonlight Girl's domestic first-day sales of one million, as a solo album, it can almost be regarded as the best result in recent years.
Lin Xuan'er walked to the bed with satisfaction. She pushed the window open with force. Even though the cold wind blew on her face, she felt so comfortable.
